Judge delays rules on union member dues AP Biz Wire
Regulations that were to take effect with the new year requiring unions to report to the government the details of how they spend their members' dues have been delayed one year by a federal judge.
U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler ruled on New Year's Eve that unions needed more time to comply with 'extensive and sophisticated' changes approved by the White House Office of Management and Budget in November.
Labor Secretary Elaine Chao 'has simply failed to offer any reasonable justification for requiring such far-reaching changes to take place in a period of seven weeks,' Kessler wrote. She issued an injunction delaying the new regulation by a year.
The AFL-CIO sued the Labor Department to block the regulation, which would make unions disclose in detail how much they spend on politics, gifts and management and report any expenditure above $5,000.------------------------------------------- posted 8:00 AM :: reference link ::
